Located about 50 km from Kota Kinabalu, the waterfalls near the town of Tamparuli is accessible by easy hiking. There are 3 packages offered: A: a 8 km hike with 7 waterfalls; B: a 5 km hike with 3 waterfalls and C: a 3 km hike with 1 waterfall. I took package B (cost RM 23: RM 15 guide fee and RM 8 conservation fee). You can easily get water and food supply at the starting point. There is a clean changing room and toilet just nearby. Wear comfortable drifit clothing and good hiking shoes. Bring your swim gear for a nice cool dip in the pool at the Murug Turug waterfall. The enclosed pictures of waterfalls are: Murug Turug, Kionop, Piolungan, respectively.

Kiansom Waterfall is a favourite picnic spot for the local. The water that flows down from Mt Kinabalu is so refreshing and clean. It's not a big waterfall area but safety must be observe at all times and watch your steps because the stones area here are quite slippery. Overall its a great place to dip in the water and photo taking.
Teck Guan Cocoa Village is about 45 minutes away from Tawau town. Located in Quion Hill, the fertile volcanic soil begets the robust cocoa trees. Here, you witness the whole cocoa cultivation chain from beans to pod harvesting and the unique fermentation process that creates our Hoko flavor. At Cocoa Cultural Spring, a 75-foot falling waterfall is a part of Balung river showing the 27,000-year-old
